On the Acquisition of the Syntax of Romance
ISBN: 9789027201775 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume presents eleven papers on the acquisition of Romance, most of them presented at the Romance Turn VIII, held in Bellaterra, Catalonia, Spain, in September 2016. Part I of the volume is devoted to passives and related constructions. The results unveil domains in comprehension in which children are adult-like, and other domains where there is delay. It is a challenge for current theoretical proposals to encompass such differences. Part II focuses on the TP-field, including clitics and negation. Part III deals with the CP-field, covering topics such as backward anaphora, subjects and...

Structuring Variation in Romance Linguistics and Beyond: In honour of Leonardo M. Savoia
ISBN: 9789027201904 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Current theoretical approaches to language devote great attention to macro- and micro-variation and show an ever-increasing interest in minority languages. In this respect, few empirical domains are as rich and lively as the Italo-Romance languages, which together with Albanian were the main research domain of Leonardo M. Savoia. The volume covers areas as different as phonology, morphology, syntax and the lexicon. A broad range of Romance languages is considered, as well as Albanian, Greek and Hungarian, shedding new light on many classical topics. The first section focuses on morphosyntax,...

Negation and Negative Concord: The view from Creoles
ISBN: 9789027201928 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While universally present in languages, negation is well-known to manifest a surprising cross-linguistic diversity of forms. In creole languages, however, negation and negative dependencies have been regarded as largely uniform. Creole languages as Bickerton claims in Roots of Language, generally exhibit negative concord, a construction popularly dubbed `double negation', where several expressions, each negative on its own, come together with a logic-defying single negation interpretation. While this construction - problematic for compositionality if the meaning of sentences emerge from the...

Substance-based Grammar - The (Ongoing) Work of John Anderson
ISBN: 9789027201652 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The contributions of this volume centre around the (ongoing) work of John Anderson, Professor Emeritus at the University of Edinburgh and Fellow of the British Academy, who, with detailed studies in phonology, morphology, semantics and syntax as well as careful discussions of historical and methodological issues in linguistics at large, has been and still is the central figure in the development of a theory of language structure driven by the assumption of structural analogy between syntax and phonology and firmly grounded in the long-standing tradition of substantively based grammar behind...

Aspectuality across Languages: Event construal in speech and gesture
ISBN: 9789027201249 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book provides a nuanced, multimodal perspective on how people express events via certain grammatical forms of verbs in speech and certain qualities of movement in manual gestures. The volume is the outcome of an international project that involved three teams: one each from France, Germany, and Russia, including scholars from the Netherlands and the United States. Aspect and gesture use are studied in three Indo-European languages, i.e. French, German, and Russian. The book also summarizes the main points and arguments from French, German, and Russian works on aspect in relation to...

Non-Canonically Case-Marked Subjects: The Reykjavik-Eyjafjallajoekull papers
ISBN: 9789027201478 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Interest in non-canonically case-marked subjects has been unceasing since the groundbreaking work of Andrews and Masica in the late 70's who were the first to document the existence of syntactic subjects in another morphological case than the nominative. Their research was focused on Icelandic and South-Asian languages, respectively, and since then, oblique subjects have been reported for language after language throughout the world. This newfangled recognition of the concept of oblique subjects at the time was followed by discussions of the role and validity of subject tests, discussions of...

The Grammatical Realization of Polarity Contrast: Theoretical, empirical, and typological approaches
ISBN: 9789027201669 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The polarity of a sentence is crucial for its meaning. It is thus hardly surprising that languages have developed devices to highlight this meaning component and to contrast statements with negative and positive polarity in discourse. Research on this issue has started from languages like German and Dutch, where prosody and assertive particles are systematically associated with polarity contrast. Recently, the grammatical realization of polarity contrast has been at the center of investigations in a range of other languages as well. Core questions concern the formal repertoire and the exact...

Recent Developments in Functional Discourse Grammar
ISBN: 9789027201942 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume presents a collection of papers using the theory of Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) to analyse and explain a number of specific constructions or phenomena (external possessor contructions and binominal constructions, negation, modification, modality, polysynthesis and transparency) from different perspectives, language-specific, comparative and typological. In addition to applying the theory to the topics in question, these papers aim to contribute to the further development of the theory by modifying and extending it on the basis of new linguistic evidence from a range of...

Focus Realization in Romance and Beyond
ISBN: 9789027201508 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What are the linguistic means for expressing different types of foci such as (narrow) information focus and contrastive focus in Romance languages, and why are there such differing views on such a presumably clear-cut research subject? Bringing together original expert work from a variety of linguistic disciplines and perspectives such as language acquisition and language contact, this volume provides a state-of-the-art discussion on central issues of focus realization. These include the interaction between prosody, syntax, and pragmatics, the typology of word order and intonation languages,...

Questioning Theoretical Primitives in Linguistic Inquiry: Papers in honor of Ricardo Otheguy
ISBN: 9789027201676 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Across the world, professional linguistic inquiry is in full bloom, largely as result of pioneering thinkers who helped rapidly modernize the study of human language in the last century. As the field continues to move forward, further solidifying its position as a conduit of insight into the human condition, it is essential to take stock of the theoretical primitives that have given linguistics its intellectual foundation. This volume does precisely that, inspecting the load-bearing components of the edifice upon which contemporary linguistics has been constructed. The volume's authors -...
